FF15 looks good so far. I've been done with FF RPG's since 7, but FF14 ARR is amazing and so fun PVE & PVP.

SquareEnix just keeps getting further and further from the classic games that people loved. I'm not saying nobody can love the current games (Final Fantasy XIII and on), but scouring the interwebs will show that Final Fantasy VII through Final Fantasy X seem to be the overwhelming favorites, but SquareEnix isn't making games like those anymore.

Because we're moving forward. It's called progression. Wanting the games to stay the same or similar to the "classics" is akin to not wanting Mario to make the jump to 3D, FPS games to have 30 weapons on a character with no health regeneration, or GTA to be top down again.
Do you think if Crash Bandicoot had a visual overhaul (to be on par with the current gen) but the gameplay was the same as 1996, it'd be an enjoyable game? Maybe a nostalgia factor would kick in, but I'm sure you would, otherwise, get real bored, real fast.
I'm glad FF has become more open world. The reason the environments were static and NPCs basically meant nothing was a limitation of the technology used to produce the games. Now we have these great machines to give immersive worlds....and you'd rather the gameplay and atmosphere to be like it was 20 years ago???
People on the Internet are mostly wrong about stuff. Except me of course.
I love all games from X-2 to XIII-3. Except for the smelly MMOs of course.
If you demand respect or gratitude for your volunteer work, you're doing volunteering wrong.
Yeah Final Fantasy is dead to me. Il replay the older ones but I wont spend any more time and money.

I don't know what open world you're talking about. Final Fantasy VII, Final Fantasy VIII, and Final Fantasy IX were more open world than Final Fantasy XIII or Final Fantasy XIII-2 (I didn't even bother with Final Fantasy XIII-3, so I don't know on that one). Final Fantasy X was more "open world" than Final Fantasy XIII and Final Fantasxy XIII-2 as well, albeit in a different fashion. It wasn't near as "open" as Final Fantasy VII, Final Fantasy VIII, or Final Fantasy IX. The only improvement we have no is graphics. I love the graphics, but they're taking away the open world feel, and they're giving us pretty crappy storylines (in my opinion). I want us to use these "great machines to give immersive worlds" and actually get the immersive worlds. If Dragon Age Inquisition/Skyrim/etc can make huge maps with great graphics then so can Final Fantasy. But they aren't. They're making great graphics, and they put those into hallways. That's almost all Final Fantasy XIII is. With the exception of Gran Pulse everything is a giant hallway.

Lol, I own Final Fantasy XIV: A Realm Reborn. I don't play it. It isn't a classic. It is an MMO.
